<h2>GeneDAS</h2>

<p>
 GeneDAS is a simple extension to the DAS 1.53 protocol that allows the 
 exchange of annotations via reference identifiers (accession codes) 
 rather than reference sequence ranges. Location data (&lt;start&gt; and &lt;stop&gt;)
 is irrelevant, and annotation applies to the entire entity referenced by the ID. 
 </p>
 
 <p> An example view that is using GeneDAS is the ensembl geneview.
